    We dine at Momoya frequently. We usually order the $82 sushi and sashimi tasting combination. Usually it has generously cut sashimi. Last night it was cut very frugally by the chef on the far right of the sushi bar. I don't know if that was an aberration, or whether it reflects a sub rosa price increase in the form of smaller portions. At $82, it wasn't a good choice last night. We also ordered the black cod entree, which was very good as usual.

    We sat outside. It was very loud. The ambiance was much nicer inside. The sushi was only ok. The saki took too long to arrive (after appetizer).

    The food was excellent and truly differentiated. The service was perfect. The only complaint is that the table we had a view of the restrooms. We've been several times and will continue to keep this gem on our list of regulars.

    Miso soup, slgnature sushi and warm chocolaye cake were all very delicious. The decoration was natural and welcoming. The tables were a bit close to each other. Great food, value and atmosphere.

    Outstanding food. One dish better than the rest…especially the appetizers. Favorites were the kampachi jalipino, shishido peppers, pork buns, Agassi tofu, and warm mushroom salad. Our waiter was extremely attentive, making sure the huge amount of food we ordered came in a timely manner and that we never needed to ask for anything (water glasses filled, clean plates arrived like magic before we needed to ask, etc,) This restaurant is consistently a gem.
